The nurses have been on strike for four weeks now, demanding registration of their collective bargaining agreement. Opetu said the nurses’ union has not been invited for any talks with their employer for more than two weeks, frustrating negotiation efforts. Conditions at the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital worsened yesterday as senior nurses and ward managers joined the boycott.
